done with Easter

Well, I tried to post this one with the other card, but all the words kept bunching up together and would't stay where I was trying to put them. I am really computer/blog challenged! Maybe when I retire (in 55 months, but who's counting... ME!!) I will be able to spend some time learning how to do all of this better. Until then, it will be what it will be. :)
This card was inspired by several on SplitcoastStampers. I thought the idea of using the petal as the "carrot" and the Baroque Motifs swirl stamp as the leafy part was so clever! This is my take on that theme...


Stamps: Pick a Petal, Baroque Motifs

Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Certainly Celery

Paper: Pumpkin Pie, Certainly Celery, Whisper White, Certainly Celery d/p

other: eyelet border punch, Nestabilities scalloped square, pumpkin grosgrain ribbon, orange gingham ribbom, green self-stick "bling", green library clip
